SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 469,433, dated February 23, 1892.

Application filed November 9 1891. Serial No. 411,414. (No model.)

'To all whom t may concern:

scription of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

The invention relates to pen-holders, and has for its object the combination therewith of a blotter; and my invention consists in the combination, with a pen-holder, of a blotter detachably secured thereto and adapted to revolve about the pen-holder,'as Will now be fully described, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, in which the figure is a perspective View illustrating my invention in its application to a pen-holder.

In carrying out my invention the blotter c, in the form of a cylinder or roller, may be mounted on the free end of the pen-holder l) itself, so as to revolve thereon,the holder being of a general tapering form, except that portion of it which serves as an axis for the blotting-roller a, which portion b of the holder is preferably made cylindrical to form an annular abutmentb2 for one end of the blottingroller CL, the outer end of the portion h of the holder b having a button c applied or screwed thereto that forms the otherabutment for the blotting-roller and confines the same on its axis of rotation.

In the use of a blotter constructed as desc'ribed the penholder is placed at a right an gle to the Written line or surface and the blotter rolled over the Same.

The blotting-roller is made of light material-as, for instance, of Wood or sheet metalin the form of a spool, upon which the blotting-paper or other ink-absorbing material is Wound, so as to facilitate the removal of such paper and the substitution of fresh blottingpaper or other like material, a convenient and useful accessory or attachment for pen-holders being thus provided.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new therein, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

A pen-holderl having a cylindrical bearing b', screw-threaded at. its end, in combination With a blotting-cylinder d, mounted to revolve on said bearing, anda retaining device, such as a nut c, screwed to the end of Ithe bearin g, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in y presence of two Witnesses.
